There's plenty of room for a small group between the lounge, dining room, and two traditional bedrooms. It won't suit those looking for modern touches (though there are plenty of contemporary comforts inside), but it suits the historic surroundings perfectly. Speaking of setting, you'll be in the heart of Venice here. Landmarks like the famous Accademia Bridge and Piazza San Marco are within easy reach – not to mention an array of eateries and shops.

For somewhere between San Marco and the Rialto bridge, A Call for Calm is remarkably quiet. It’s far from the main thoroughfares, the narrow alleyways that nevertheless carry tens of thousands of tourists to and from St. Mark’s Square every day. It’s also, location aside, a lovely place to stay. The hefty beams stand out, but every part of the design works perfectly together, and while it can only hold three people, Mario looks after a couple of other places in the building, so larger groups can look at potential combinations.


A Call For Calm

Smoke Detector

Discover a haven of tranquillity in this beautifully designed apartment set within a 15th-century palazzo. We love the mix of character details and contemporary touches, from the marble mantelpiece to the mural inspired by Venetian gardens. It has all the essentials to settle in nicely, too – comfortable beds, a full kitchen, and a duo of bathrooms. Topping it all off is the fantastic location. You'll be in the heart of Venice here, just a fifteen-minute stroll from St Mark's Square, Doge's Palace, and the Bridge of Sighs.

Just a short walk from the Accademia Bridge and the Gallerie dell'Accademia, this smart apartment is the perfect base for exploring the beautiful, floating city of Venice. Inside, you'll find stylish furnishings, trendy art prints and pretty pink wallpaper, creating a chic and elegant home, so you'll have no trouble unwinding here with a glass of Italian wine. When the weather's warm, sit out on your private terrace and enjoy supper and drinks alfresco. 

When it's time to explore, you're within many of the city's must-see attractions, including St Mark’s Square, the Punta della Dogana museum and the Church of Madonna della Salute. Fill your days with romantic gondola rides, Vaporetto tours, and going from meal to meal at a range of excellent restaurants and wine bars. 

The Tale of Venice

Fenced Property

This stylish Venetian apartment offers a charming canal view and a private outside space. As if that wasn't enough, it's been recently renovated so you've got high-end touches and all the modern comforts you could wish for from the moment you arrive. In fact, contemporary style sits side by side with original features in this charming pad. 

Just a short walk from the lively Campo Santa Margherita and the Zattere, with its stunning views of the beautiful architecture and iconic canals. Surrounded by restaurants and cafes, while many of the city's most celebrated attractions are easily reachable on foot, including the Gallerie dell'Accademia, you really couldn't be better placed. There are romantic gondola rides to enjoy, and hidden wine bars to discover. 

When you return home, you can make the most of the good weather by gathering your group outside. The apartment is tucked away within a friendly residential neighbourhood, where you can sit out and enjoy dinner and drinks alfresco on your covered terrace, savouring the balmy summer evenings. 

My Venetian Terrace

This attractive apartment is just a few minutes from the iconic Ponte dell’Accademia, where you can enjoy one of the best views in Venice. You’ll also be close to the Rialto Bridge. The apartment is comfortable and stylish, with charming wallpaper and exposed wooden beams. The kitchen window looks out onto Venetian rooftops; you can cook for yourself when you don’t fancy dining out in the cafes and restaurants nearby. This home has plenty of room for four and is well-suited to long-term stays. 

Crystal & Lace

Patio / Terrace

Amidst the historic streets of Venice, this apartment makes it easy to explore the iconic sights of the floating city. It’s a short stroll to galleries, Basilicas and local restaurants. Plus, you’ll find easy access to the canals for boat trips and your host is on hand to help organise a range of extras – including guided tours and airport transfers. Back at home, you’ll have access to a private terrace for sunset drinks. Inside, the open-plan living room is perfectly suited to couples and solo travellers, while the bedroom makes it easy to switch off after a day of exploring. 

Venetian Beauty

DVD Player

If this canalside apartment isn't in a stellar location, nothing is. It's right along the Zattere waterfront, just a one-minute stroll from the Gallerie dell'Accademia and its famous bridge. The setting is undoubtedly the highlight, but this studio-style apartment gets points for style, too. Sure, it's compact, but it has plenty of character. The bed is on the mezzanine tucked under the wooden-beamed ceiling, creating separation from the living area downstairs. We think it's perfect for couples or solo travellers looking for a comfortable and central base in Venice.

Canalside Delight

Desk

Self Check-in / Check-out

Situated in a typical Venetian building – this apartment has gorgeous views from the living and dining room over Venice’s charming canals, as well as glimpses of the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute. If some of your group are split between a preference for a modern or characterful home – well this place mixes both styles. Guests with limited mobility should take note that this home’s building doesn’t have a lift. If that’s not a deal-breaker, you’ll love the location – the Peggy Guggenheim Museum is nearby, while getting to the Lido is easy as the Santo Spirito Vaporetto is just a short walk away.

The Stag's Eye

Escape the crowds in Venice and stay in your own private museum. Tucked away in a peaceful corner of a buzzing central neighbourhood only minutes from Piazza San Marco, this quiet apartment boasts views from a rooftop terrace facing an aqua canal. Every piece of furniture in this opulent apartment is a work of art, with beautiful antique mirrors, marble floors, and dressers. This includes the magnificent 16th-century four-poster beds in each bedroom, straight from your host’s family castle in Tuscany. Settle in and live like historical royalty – except with the added luxury of modern comforts. When you return home from a day of wandering Venice's winding streets, enjoy a coffee out on the roof terrace and admire the city's famous waterways from above – although the steps are steep, particularly up to the roof, the view is well worth it.

Rooftop Terrace

First Aid Kit

In a salmon-pink old palazzo, this lovely home is a real find. Relax with a glass of Prosecco on the southwest-facing altana, a typical Venetian rooftop terrace, and take in the views over the Venice’s rooftops.
Inside, we love the high-vaulted, loft-style living space with its sun-bleached eau de nil and parched papyrus hues. Take a seat on the L-shaped sofa and plan your Venice itinerary.

This home is in genteel San Samuele, dotted with galleries and antique shops. Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art and Campo Santo Stefano are both a three-minute stroll. St. Mark’s Square is nine minutes on foot, while Palazzo Mocenigo on the Grand Canal, once the Venetian bolthole of romantic poet and literary figure Lord Byron, is fifteen minutes. Or let your host arrange a tour around the lagoon in a skippered ‘bragozzetto’ boat. 


Ode On Venice

Located just moments from the iconic La Fenice Opera House and five minutes on foot from San Marco Square, this is as central as Venice apartments get. Not that you’d know it – despite its location, guests rave about how quiet it is at night here. Well-suited for a small family or group of friends sharing, there’s a sofa bed in the lounge area to sleep an additional guest. The desk space tucked away in a nook off the bedroom is a bonus, too, for anyone planning to work remotely.

This central Venice apartment is all about great design aesthetics. Yet with an on-point location between the Dorsoduro's Guggenheim Collection and the waters of the Zattere promenade, as well as a private rooftop terrace to call yours here – the space is so much more than stylish interiors. After a day's excursions exploring the historic locale, drinks on the rooftop terrace are part of the appeal, or you might prefer to take a glass of prosecco to one of the luxurious bathtubs.

Nice to haves

You've struck gold with this one. Epitomising Venetian grandeur in every crevice and, in the same breath, delivering a masterclass in colour theory, it's no surprise that this beautifully-designed home has caught the discerning eye of Condé Nast Traveller. It's delightfully peaceful, tucked away in a piazza's side street yet right at the heart of the historic centre, just a ten-minute stroll from St Mark's Square.

The interior exudes elegance, striking the perfect balance between rustic charm and contemporary comfort. Majestic timber beams cling to lofty ceilings while large windows usher in floods of sunlight. We love the living space, a sanctuary of serenity cloaked in a radiant emerald hue and adorned with parquet flooring, lavish textiles and opulent decor. A solid wood doorway leads to the well-appointed kitchen, equipped with swish appliances and a complimentary bottle of Prosecco. After a restful slumber, spend mornings roosted at the dining table, sipping coffee and tucking into pastries before a day of adventure.

Emerald Masquerade

Throws

Umbrellas

This elegant home is the ideal bolthole for those visiting Venice. It’s in a quiet neighbourhood – Campo Santo Stefano – close to every sight Venice has to offer, but away from the crowds. 

The apartment is a grand family home, with traditional touches like the wood-beamed ceilings. It’s on the fourth floor, and from the windows you can see a pretty skyscape of Venetian rooftops all the way to the Grand Canal. Even more amazingly for Venice, this building has an elevator so those four floors are no trouble at all. 

Take your morning coffee on the balcony, then head out to explore the city. The Vaporetto stop at Santa Maria del Giglio is five minutes from the apartment, so it’s easy to get out on the lagoon. The glorious views from Ponte dell’Accademia can be found just five minutes away, while Piazza San Marco is a ten-minute stroll. Rialto Bridge is nine minutes from the apartment – stroll across it with a gelato for a cheeky touristy moment. 

Calle XXII Marzo, an upmarket avenue of high-end boutiques, is just seven minutes from the apartment. Whether you’re flashing the cash or window shopping, it’s worth a wander. 

However you spend your time in Venice, you’ll be glad to be doing so here. This apartment is comfortable and bright, and in an unbeatable location. 


A Taste Of Venice

Espresso Machine

Now, this is a place where you can really spoil yourself and your family or friends. The private terrace right on the Grand Canal is stunning – admire the views of the Basilica della Salute, Punta della Dogana and San Giorgio Maggiore from both here and inside. You’d think that the outdoor space was the main highlight, but inside the interiors are something else too. It’s almost museum-like in parts with its lion statues and oil paintings. Add into the mix this former palazzo’s location (it’s a two-minute stroll from St. Mark's Square) and you have a very special home indeed.

Canaletto's Vistas

This elegant apartment is spread across two floors of a historic palazzo, boasting fantastic views of the canal and the San Trovaso Church. You’ll be in a great location from which to explore Venice and enjoy gondola rides, but far enough from the usual tourist spots to enjoy some tranquillity too. This is an ideal base for a family, with plenty of space for everyone in the party to find a little private nook. There are some stairs to climb here, and the kitchen may be on the compact side, but still, this is a great find. 

The Last Gondola 

Balcony / Patio

This art-filled home is just as impressive as its location on the Zattere waterfront. Moments from the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and the Gallerie dell'Accademia as well as a wonderful selection of restaurants, this is the perfect setting for an idyllic Italian stay. You’ll also have access to a serene private courtyard – a rare treat in this location. Inside, there's something to admire in every corner thanks to the unique collection of art and furnishings. There’s also a custom-built library, a wine cellar and an independent studio (with its own entrance) on the ground floor – perfect for guests seeking a little extra privacy. 

A Venetian Moon

Sitting on the Rio dei Carmini Canal, this apartment is all about its breathtaking views. A small balcony lets you take in the stunning scenery with the canal right below you, best enjoyed – we think – with a glass of Italian wine. The minimalist decor certainly lets the views do the talking here, and you’ll need to tackle quite a few steps upon leaving the lift and once inside the home itself. But with dreamy postcard-perfect windows and a location that puts you a five-minute stroll from the Gallerie dell'Accademia, this home ticks a lot of boxes for a memorable Venetian stay.  


Blue Velvet Dreams

Sound System

Surrounded by the vintage boutiques, independent shops and low-key eateries of Vencine’s Dorsoduro district, this apartment offers a relaxing retreat in the heart of Venice. Spread over three levels, there’s plenty of space here, and the plush furnishings give the place a homely feel. we love the rooftop terrace, which affords views over the city’s architectural masterpieces. If you’re in town for work or just need to keep on top of emails, the cosy office will no doubt come in handy. The top floor features a luxurious suite, ideal for a couple or small family who need their own space – the sofa turns into a sofa bed for a little one who needs to sleep close to their parents.

Venetian Garden

This colourful apartment in the heart of Venice is ideal for sharing among couples. Its interior is a tad dated, yet charming, and worth noting is that it’s located on the second floor with steps only. Having said that – we’re sure you’ll be busy sightseeing in a city as unique as this one, with some of its most famous landmarks, such as San Marco Square and the Rialto Bridge, within walking distance. Looking to accommodate a larger group? There are two more apartments in this building which you can try to rent out. 

Venetian Dream

Temperature Control

This apartment can be found in the chic and central San Marco area of Venice. The city’s main attractions, including the Rialto Bridge, Grand Canal, and St Mark’s Square, are within easy walking distance. We recommend resting your feet by seeing the sights from the water though – you’re in Venice after all. Rialto and Sant’Angelo vaporetto stops are nearby, so you can zip around the canals with ease. The home itself is traditional and fairly grand – you can look forward to Murano chandeliers and terrazzo flooring. With a building this old, you won’t find a lift, so it’s best to pack light. 

The Venetian Oasis

Safe

Sitting just a stone’s throw from the Gallerie dell'Accademia, this inviting apartment puts Venice’s most iconic sights at your fingertips. 

Inside, the decor exudes simple elegance with a pared-back aesthetic that makes the space feel modern and bright. Though compact, the home maximises its space to great effect with a concealed kitchenette in the open-plan living area, as well as clever details like a stand-up mirror hidden in the bedroom’s vanity desk. Speaking of the bedroom, we love the feature wall that adds a touch of boudoir flair to the proceedings. 

When it comes to exploring outside your home, you’re just a five-minute walk from the Punta della Dogana museum and the beautiful Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, while lively St Mark’s Square is ten minutes away on foot. 


Flowers for Sunsets

Cafetiere

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

Featured in the London Evening Standard’s Home and Property pages, this beautiful home in Venice’s Dorsoduro neighbourhood is an oasis of sun-dappled calm in the city. 
 
Boasting a glorious private garden, you’ll feel perfectly serene as you enjoy an aperitivo and an alfresco meal beneath the large vine-covered pergola or while catching some rays on the deck chairs on sunny afternoons. 
 
Inside, the decor is an elegant blend of Old World charm and rustic chic, with beamed ceilings in the cream-coloured living area and three classically-styled bedrooms, two of which have en-suites. We love the main bedroom’s luxurious tub and the rainfall showers in the other two bathrooms too. 
 
While you could easily spend all day in your swish pad, go out and explore the many sights around you. You’re a three-minute walk from the grand Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, a four-minute stroll from the Gallerie dell'Accademia, while bustling St. Mark's Square is fifteen minutes away on foot and by water bus. With your host able to organise a plethora of fun and activities too – including wine tastings, cooking classes, city tours and skippered boat excursions to the Venetian Lagoon – you can be sure to experience Venice in style.
 


Vine Oasis

If you’re in Venice to soak up the history, the museums and the classic Venitian architecture, then this apartment already has you covered before you even start sightseeing. The building is an old palazzo, backing onto the Grand Canal with its own door to the water, should you arrive by water taxi. The 15th-century gothic architecture had us feeling the Venice vibes as soon as we stepped inside. Exploring the grand rooms, there’s a collection of antiques worthy of the Doge’s Palace – from sparkling silver spoons to gilded books and trinket boxes. Silk sofas in the living room are not just easy on the eye, they’re plush and comfy to boot. And the antique bed frames and writing desks in the bedrooms are like living, working history. What’s more, the three bedrooms overlooking the owner’s private, walled garden for a peaceful night’s sleep.

Situated between the Accademia Bridge (a five-minute walk) and Ca’ Rezzonico Museum of 18th Century Art (a three-minute walk), you’re in the heart of Venice’s gallery neighbourhood. The ancient streets around you are home to secret canalways lined with restaurants and bars too.  

The Curator's Bounty

This sprawling four-story home in the heart of Venice's Dorsoduro district provides a retreat from the bustle of the city. Just a few minutes from the Zattera waterfront and overlooking a town square, you're close to local-approved bars, eateries, and even one of the city's last gondola workshops. But location isn't all we love – this home enraptured us with its opulent style, too. Each room boasts its own decadent colour scheme to match the plush handcrafted Fortuny fabrics on show. Two single sofa beds keep sleeping options flexible. And while the antiques and lack of lift mean children aren't allowed, we think groups of friends will enjoy calling this place home.

The Dorsoduro

Tucked away on a side street just a stone’s throw from vibrant, shop-filled Calle de la Mandola, this comfortable apartment is just the ticket for those looking to make the most out of Venice’s historic sights. 
 
There’s a touch of Old World charm in the home’s beamed ceilings and French doors giving way to scenic Juliet balconies, while the decor is unmistakable contemporary, allowing you to experience your city stay in style. The two bedrooms are pared back and curated with rest and relaxation in mind, while the luxurious tiled bathrooms are swoon-worthy spaces you’ll relish waking up to. 
 
When it comes to sightseeing, you couldn't be better placed with countless cultural hotspots within easy walking distance – St Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge are a ten-minute walk, Campo Sant'Angelo is a four-minute stroll and the Doge's Palace is a fourteen-minutes away on foot. With your host able to organise wine tastings, trips by skippered boat the Venetian Lagoon and plenty more activities, you’re all set for a memorable time. 


Rossini's Rhyme

Complete with a four-poster bed, gorgeous little courtyard garden, and striking original stone staircase, this beautiful home feels as though it's been plucked from another era entirely. It offers a great blend of old and new, however, as it is equipped with a wonderfully contemporary kitchen in which we can just imagine whipping up a tasty homecooked meal. The home has been in the same family for generations, and you can really feel the love and care that's gone into maintaining it. The period villa also boasts a great location within the Dorsoduro District close to the Campo Santa Margherita where you will find loads of popular local eateries, bustling bars packed with Venetians, and some cafes perfect for people-watching.

Finely Aged Chianti

This classy penthouse apartment offers plenty of space in the centre of Venice. Just two minutes walk from the Vaporetto stop, simply jump on the water bus to explore famous landmarks and delicious eateries. Set over two floors, this home can comfortably sleep seven people thanks to a sofa bed on the mezzanine level. Inside you’ll find antiques and wooden beams, which only add to the home’s character, as well as two terraces that offer panoramic views over the city’s rooftops. Opera fans will appreciate the building's proximity to the Fenice Theatre – one of the finest opera houses in the world. 


Little Book

Comfortable, unfussy and well-connected, this apartment is an excellent place to call home. Although there’s not much natural light and the kitchen is small, there’s plenty of space for the group to spread out – the living room is separate from the dining area, which is ideal if the sofa bed is in use. In terms of location, you’re around a five-minute walk from Piazzale Roma and twenty minutes from San Marco. What’s more, there’s a water bus stop nearby and you’re not far from Venice’s central train station.

Il Dono Della Vita

Boasting all the splendour and elegance you'd expect from a historic Venetian home, this apartment is tailor-made for spending blissful breaks in between busy days exploring this vibrant and memorable city. Ornate panelled walls, high ceilings, sparkling chandeliers and antique furniture all add to the exquisite classical style, with luxurious little touches such as a grand piano and home library that give the home a stately vibe. You can enjoy some gorgeous views over the canal through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Access to Business Centre

Situated on the Grand Canal, this elegant apartment couldn’t be better placed for a romantic break in the Floating City. The interior is a quirky mix of modern and traditional, with black beams, Murano glass chandeliers, marble flourishes and a dramatic mirrored wall. We loved the pale green theme that runs throughout, as delicious as pistachio gelato. There’s a terrace on the canal (which you can get a water taxi to directly), and a back yard, which the bedroom French doors open on to. Enjoy your morning coffee watching the vaporettos glide past, before perusing the Peggy Guggenheim Collection next door or exploring Venice’s backwaters by gondola. Evenings are spent dining alfresco on atmospheric piazzas – you can reach the famous San Marco square in just twelve minutes by water bus – or with a spritz and a bowl of pasta on your decking, watching on as a violet sky marks twilight. 

Pistachio Dream

This chic little apartment is a great base in Venice. It’s away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas, standing proudly in a salmon-pink palazzetto in upmarket San Samuele. The neighbourhood – once home to Casanova – is home to antique shops and galleries, including the Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art. It’s just a short stroll from St Mark’s Square, as well as the Accademia Bridge and Campo Santo Stefano. The four-poster bed is a nice touch, though guest number three will be on a sofa bed in the open-plan living and dining space. 

Venice's Secret

This charming apartment boasts a rare feature that sets it – quite literally – above the rest. Climb the stairs from the third bedroom and arrive on the roof terrace, from which you can devour a magnificent view of Venice’s skyline, including St Mark’s Campanile. Because of this terrace, this home isn’t suitable for children under the age of 6, but it’s ideal for families with older children, and for groups of friends. It’s in a peaceful setting in the refined parish of San Samuele, close to all of Venice’s main sights, including the Grand Canal. 

Venice, I Can Feel the Waves

With a central yet quiet location, this home in Venice's San Marco offers an atmospheric base you'll love spending time in – just look at the wood beams on the ceiling and that fantastic terrace overlooking a canal. This home is suited to both families and couples travelling together, as the twin room can be turned into a double, offering flexibility. The canal outside is quiet and the streets opposite are off the beaten path, meaning you'll get plenty of peace here despite being a short stroll from town squares, famous bridges, and delicious eateries. 

The Canals & The Terrace

This artistic ground-floor apartment has a charming courtyard garden with space to enjoy a cappuccino under the sun. Babies are welcome here but unfortunately, children under the age of 10 are not. The double bed can be divided into twin singles on request, and the single sofa bed in the living room offers plenty of flexibility to the sleeping arrangements, making this home great for couples and friends alike. The kitchenette is small but well-equipped, and you'll have your pick of Venice's mouth-watering eateries just minutes away on foot.

Illy Blue

A perfect mix of elegance and warmth, this classic-contemporary apartment offers comfortable living in the heart of Venice’s Dorsoduro district. We loved the dark wood floors, oak ceiling beams, rich red accents and wrought iron details. There’s a spacious living area for regrouping before dinner plans and a cosy mezzanine level for enjoying quiet moments with a good book. If you’re a fan of cooking, the fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need for putting together Italian-inspired dishes but when you fancy hanging up your chef’s apron, head over to Al Profeta, a lovely pizzeria, only a ten-minute walk from your doorstep.

The famous Piazza San Marco is a fifteen-minute walk away. Get your culture fix at the Basilica and Museo Correr before drifting along the Grand Canal on a gondola. Stop for an aperitivo in one of Venice’s glitzy rooftop bars before grabbing dinner at one of the nearby eateries.

The Last Romantic

Close to the domes of the Salute, this cosy apartment lies on a tree-lined avenue near the Grand Canal. Both beds can be configured as doubles or singles upon request, making this home a great choice whether you're travelling as a family, friend group, or couples. There is a chance you might hear some outside noise, but you won't be fully central and there's a water taxi stop close by for getting around. To help you get the most out of your stay, your host can arrange additional services from wine tasting to private tours.

Gondola Retreat

There's something rather grand about this apartment in the historic centre of Venice. The high ceilings, parquet flooring and tall windows combine together for a classy backdrop, against which the selection of contemporary furnishings and modern artwork really stand out. Add to that an industrial-style kitchen, a few large bedrooms and boldly coloured bathrooms, and you have an address that is as memorable as the city outside the front door. Through the windows, it's possible to see the spectacular dome of Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute that sits on the other side of the Grand Canal. Closer to home, there are designer boutiques running along the apartment's street, while the Teatro La Fenice opera house is only a two-minute walk away.
